    Rented a compression tester from Autozone.
    Long story short, the end of the valve stem somehow came loose and fell down in the cylinder.
    Except..it's brass, magnet won't get it out.
    Is autozone liable?

    any available vacuum with a few feet of clear plastic tubing taped to the end. Stick it down the sparkplug hole and wiggle it around.
